Augmented reality was part of King Charles’ coronation celebration thanks to an experience launched by technology and marketing services company DEPT in partnership with BBC’s Children in Need and the Royally Big Portrait.

The Royally Big Portrait project was led by artist Sam Barnett. It asked children to submit hand-drawn portraits of King Charles, which were combined into a final portrait put on display at the Outernet London entertainment district.

The final image featured hundreds of thousands of hand-drawn portraits created by people from across the U.K.

“I am proud to be a part of The Royally Big Portrait, celebrating King Charles’ coronation as well as each child’s creativity, whilst giving them the self-belief to achieve and be a part of history,” Barnett said.
